It appears you are infected with a virus. See if the following info
provides
a solution;
The continuing saga...I have run every anti-virus and every
anti-malware I can find in both regular and safe mode. I have also
tried to downloand and install Stinger on 5 different computers
(friends helped) and none of them can install the current version of
stinger. We all get "Stinger is not a valid win32 application". Some
of these computers have talked to each other and could possibly have
been infected with a virus, but some have had not contact with mine or
each other.
I realize this is a rather long description of my problem, but I am
ready to tear my hair out. I can not find a virus, malware of any kind
nor a fix for the problem.
If anyone can steer me toward a place to find a solution, I would be
eternally grateful.
Beginning to go back to my original supposition that it is not a virus
but rather a corrupt file somewhere ..possibly in updates for Dot
Net....In Event Viewer, I have found the following error repeatedly.
EventType: Error
Event Source: MsiInstaller
Event Category: None
Event ID: 1008
Date: 11/8/2007

Any attempt to go to this url only tells me that the file is not
found. So I searched the KB for information on this error and found
article 925336 Oct. 11, 2007.
I am also repeatedly getting Com+ error id 4689..
Event Type: Error
Event Source: COM+
Event Category: Unknown
Event ID: 4689
Date: 11/8/2007
Time: 7:43:42 PM
User: N/A
Computer: THEWIZ
Description:
The run-time environment has detected an inconsistency in its internal
state. This indicates a potential instability in the process that
could be caused by the custom components running in the COM+
application, the components they make use of, or other factors. Error
in d:\qxp_slp\com\com1x\src\comsvcs\package\cpackage.cpp(1184), hr =
8007043c: InitEventCollector failed
For more information, see Help and Support Center at
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp. Again the above url is not
available, but a search of the KB turned up article 916254 Dec. 8,
2006.
I have also received Event ID 1023 source .net runtime frequently over
the past month, as well as event category (6) event ID 102. Error
category (100) event id 1000 also shows up regularly. KB article
290647 seems to speak to this error.

shady street, screaming all the way)
Zareba, please don't do that, lol. Try this
It sounds like the COM+ Catalog may have become corrupt. It can be
re-built with the following steps:
1. Reboot and start in Safemode
2. Open a command prompt (cmd.exe) and execute the following
commands:
* del %windir%\System32\~Clbcatq.dll
* ren %windir%\System32\Clbcatq.dll ~Clbcatq.dll
* del %windir%\Registration\*.* /s
3. Start the registry editor and delete the following registry key:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \SOFTWARE \Microsoft \COM3]
4. Reboot and start in Normal mode.
5. Open a command prompt (cmd.exe) and execute this command:
rmdir /s %windir%\Registration
6. Open the Control Panel and double click Add/Remove Programs
7. Select Add/Remove Components and click Next and it will reinstall
COM+
8. Go to Windows Update and re-apply the necessary service packs and
updates for COM+.
